Article[edit]

The topic discussed is a rare case. The original Helium stars were class B stars. Said: Rursus () 21:02, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, but instead the article is approaching a disambiguation page! Said: Rursus () 19:48, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Summary of Future Additions[edit]

Discoveries of Helium stars- "GALEX J184559.8−413827 (or J1845−4138 for short), was initially classified as a faint helium-rich "hot subdwarf," but new spectroscopic observations reveal that this star is more hydrogen-deficient than previously thought."[1] This was in 2011 and was labeled a "hot subdwarf." This means that GALEX J184559.8-413827 is characterized with being hotter and larger than the sun, while also being completely devoid of hydrogen. From these classifications, this hot subdwarf is considered to be a extreme helium star. In South Africa, the Southern Africa Large Telescope (SALT) has been monitoring this massive helium star's high-resolution spectrum.

A Hypervelocity star (HVSs) called US 708, HVS 2 has been labeled a helium star. Being the most fast rotator, it is thought to be a remnant of a thermonuclear supernova.[2]

Origin of Helium stars After a binary mass transfer, a helium star is formed.[3]

Turning into a supernova The star will begin to grow in radius and evolve upon exploding into a supernova.[4]

Merging with a helium star Often when a supernova dies, long gamma ray bursts are emitted. In 2010 it was observed that the aftermath of a supernova death caused a helium star to merge with a neuron star. This led to the merger going through a common envelope phase (losing it's hydrogen) and emitting gamma ray bursts. [5]

Helium main sequence diagram?[edit]

I don't know if this exists in the literature, but as the article compares the "He MS" to the main sequence per se, wouldn't it be useful to present an HR-type diagram showing the helium main sequence, especially as compared to the normal/hydrogen one? Or failing that, some statement clarifying how they relate. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 17:41, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A diagram would be good, a comparison would be great, but I can't find one that is suitable for Wikipedia use. Lithopsian (talk) 19:06, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Any possibility of clarifying where it lies? To the left of the H MS? To the right? Does it overlie it? 109.255.211.6 (talk) 03:57, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
